  1. #Wisconsin - #TribalFoodSovereignty resources

    "#NativeFoodSovereignty is the right of #AmericanIndians, #AlaskaNatives and #NativeHawaiians to produce their own #TraditionalFoods on their own lands to sustain themselves, their families and their communities. #NativeAmericans had #FoodSovereignty for thousands of years before the first European contact in the Americas. Food systems have dramatically changed to the detriment of Native peoples’ health."
    -First Nations Development Institute

    Written by Erin Peot

    "We are exploring the development of a statement that acknowledges this land’s #FirstNations people. This statement would be used to open discussions and educate the public we work with about First Nations peoples’ rights and the contributions First Nations have made and continue to make throughout this land now known as #Wisconsin."

  2. Have a beautiful Day of Aphrodite aka Venus' Day aka Frigg's Day aka Friday 🌹

    For #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth I'm introducing Native American deities 🌎

    #Haumea is the Hawaiian goddess of fertility and childbirth. She repeatedly transforms herself from an old woman to a young girl using a magic stick and has sex with humans. When her identity is found out, she leaves humanity behind. The trickster god #Kaulu catches her in a net and murders her.
